Easy wins

Get three CRX's and mod them until you have 199 hp. Let Amber, Vito, and Chief race the free sprints until they get full skills. Then, use them in a 2-2-2 or a 3-3 circuit race.

Easy money

In Career mode, go to your garage and do something with one of your cars (for example, switch a part or get a different paint job); the game should auto-save. Then, go back to your race menu. Go in a sprint and bet all your money on one car that looks the fastest. If it does not win at least three races out of four, turn the Xbox off and then on again. It will load your last autosave. Try the same sprint again until you win then find a different sprint and start the entire process again.

On days off, host your own race. Select a sprint and choose Class 1 vehicles. You will get a Viper vs. Viper; Viper vs. Corvette Z06; or Corvette vs. Corvette, and only two drivers, Biggi and T.K. If you get the Viper vs. Corvette, put all of your money on the Viper (maximum bet of $500,000). Collect your money, and repeat. You can choose other classes, but the lower classes give you mixed car results. Generally, anything modern will beat any muscle car in a sprint. A Skyline will beat a Corvette with up to 25 more horsepower. Biggi is a better driver than T.K. Sue is a better driver than Biggi. T.K. cheats every chance that he gets. You can also use your track to get better parts. Just schedule a circuit in the class of the car you want parts for, let your crew do the driving, and use all the cash from betting on sprints to hook up your ride.

Earn 600 respect points from any CPU character. Then, call any character on your mobile phone. Race for pink slips with one of your less powerful cars. After you get there, sell it for extra money. Make sure to have more than one car in case you lose the race.

Free metallic paint

Go to the paint menu in career mode in the workshop. Highlight "Metallic" and press A. At the color selection screen, press Y. Go to the base color and chose one. The original base color will now be active as a metallic color. For example, if the original base coat is red, if you highlight black as the base color the car will appear as black with a red metallic coat. This does not work if the car has been repainted already.

Flying car

Get a Viper GTS fully tuned and go to the oval track. Drive about 210 mph. When you are about to turn, turn the other way into the wall. Hit the nitrous and hold it while still turning into the wall. If done correctly, your car should go up and fly. You must be in the dirt part of the turn. Try using the nitrous two seconds before hitting the wall and hit the wall (wire fence) at about a 30 degree angle.

Bouncing car

Get a Corvette Z06 and go to the test track. Start driving backwards, then go to the curb with the crane sticking over the track and drive into the dirt. You should see hardened dirt. Drive onto that until you get halfway through the hardened dirt, then drive off slowly as if you are going back onto the track. Before you get back on the track your car should start to bounce and shake. When you come out of it, your car should be badly damaged.
